I was very disappointed that these did not come up at all. Pretty much anything I plant in this garden section grows like crazy. I was hoping for a beautiful natural screen. Maybe they take a year to naturalize?

First year this one only grew a few feet with no flowers, this year it is a 6 feet with many beautiful 'fluffy' pink blooms! Beautiful!

This flower is absolutely beautiful! Pink flowing flowers like Tamarix. Thrives great in our area Zone 4.

At first, I thought it was a weed (we have giant weeds here). Then a friend asked for a piece of it, and I remembered ordering it. This thing is taller than I am (I'm 5'6), and its plainly breathtaking! Butterflies, bees, hummingbirds, all visit it en masse! I noticed a little rust on the lower leaves, and quite frankly, I'm impressed with its hardiness! I've not weeded that area all summer, and still it grew tall and graceful! I'd totally get more of these, and plant them along the back fence. Well worth the purchase!
